In response to Chris' post on "What Topics Should Our Meetings Cover?" I vote for:
Keeping Dev & Production (Live) Sites/Databases Synced
I think this is a very diverse area of discussion with many different approaches. Unique environments can produce different challenges. Not everyone will want to push the same data sets the same way from dev to production. There may also be certain data points that you don't want synced across both environments. Many topics to discuss and methods to share.
This also appears to have been a Session at Drupcalcon Boston which hopefully someone attended.
I found this video from the presentation mentioned from the session post

I agree
Yes, this topic is important to many Drupal developers.
+1
I had very much hoped to attend this, however it was a BoF session that interfered with another (more organized) session that I was also interested in.
However, this topic was discussed in depth at DrupalCamp LA - and it was awesome! I'd love to have it revisited by some of those same people (Work Habit / Achieve Internet / Bryght); they all contributed deeply to the discussion - I think WH hosted the session. (If I recall, I think Chris hosted the session on flash/drupal afterwards)
I'd be willing to host a session in an upcoming meeting... (or attend & contribute). I've deployed a fair number of drupal site since 4.6, and can at least share a lot of the practices/methods I'm aware of. But my experience has been a bit more broad - and probably not to the same degree as some of the people that are working in production houses (above) with specialized jobs.
I did attend the Best Practices Session at Drupalcon - and it was soo good.
